Canepa Cars and Coffee
 

Canepa's description of the event:

Starting on April 9th, and continuing on every second Saturday of the month until October, Canepa will open its doors (and parking lot) for a coffee-fueled celebration of all things automotive.

Roll out your pride and joy and join your fellow leadfoots for an amazing morning of classics, exotics, race cars, hot rods, and motorcycles. The perfect event for clubs, aficionados, and car crazies of all ages!

Canepa Cars and Coffee will take place from 8am-12pm on the second Saturday of the month through October, and is free to the public.

Mark your calendars on 5/14, 6/11, 7/9, 8/13, 9/10 and 10/8.

If I don't hit snooze too many times on the alarm clock, I may try to make it!

Wow. @PMok - thanks so much for bringing the Canepa events to my attention. I was blown away. McClaren P1, Singer Porsche, and so many other amazing cars. I was the only 86 in the whole parking lot, sandwiched between Porsche GT3s.

Plus I got up early and drove Skyline to Back Rd to get there - and that ruled.

Speehunters has been covering last month's event at Canepa, including the freakin' Pagani that was parked out front:

and this Porsche 959: http://www.speedhunters.com/2016/08/...59-indulgence/

The next Cars and Coffee is on 9/10. Hopefully I won't be the only GT-86 there this time. :)

I work across the street. I guess I should try and show up. I've only gotten to see his cars driving down the street.

im planning to go. Which backroads do I take if I am coming from San Francisco?

@jcygts6 - Here's a fun route to take for tomorrow's event at Canepa.
I recommend getting there early, as the lot fills up.

From SF, head south on 280.
In San Mateo, turn right to go west up 92 towards the coast.
At the top of the hill, turn left on 35 (Skyline Blvd.).
Skyline is super fun. Take it all the way to hwy 17, or take a detour down Black Rd. to 17, and head towards Santa Cruz.
Take the Scotts Valley Drive exit off 17.

Maybe I'll see you there!

thanks man!

I'm going to try to make it as well.

Anyone thinking of going this weekend?

That place is so epic. Highly recommended!

I might drop by midway since I have to wake up for an 8am dentist appointment :sigh:

I'll be down at Monterey for the Pirelli WC this weekend... have fun take pics!
